Referee Fu Ming's contentious performance at Shandong Luneng last weekend will be reviewed by the Chinese Football Association.
A series of controversial calls by the FIFA official in Shandong's 2-2 Chinese Super League draw with Henan Jianye incensed Luneng and its fans, with the storm gaining fresh fury on social media as allegations fly of plagiarism in Fu's academic past.
According to Xinhua, the CFA on Tuesday announced it will review a total of four decisions that prompted Shandong, which conceded a debatable late penalty and was denied one of its own, to lodge an official complaint.
